Working with energy-related startups for the last four years brought us enormous amount of knowledge and experience. But not only that. It gave us a chance to meet some of the most innovative people and get to help their businesses grow.

In our very first meetup we would like to introduce you to a Daniel Becker, a CEO of Rafiki Power. Sharing the idea that decentralized energy solutions are the core of the energy industry, he will explain what mini grid development and operation actually means. Especially, when your business is operating in a country very far away – Tanzania.

Daniel Becker has more than ten years of experience in finance, investments and renewable energy. In July 2013, he founded E. ON Off Grid Solutions as the first startup within E.ON’s startup program :agile accelerator. Since then, the company has steadily grown and currently consists of more than 25 employees from 9 different nations. Under the brand name Rafiki Power (Swahili for “Friendly Power”), the company operates as a mini grid developer in East Africa seeking to provide clean and affordable energy to people and businesses without access to the national grid.
